The ACA requires that any tax-exempt, IRS- designated 501(c) (3) hospital complete or update a publicly-available, comprehensive CHNA every three years in order to document the extent to which it understands the unique characteristics and needs of the local communities it serves, and responds to these needs by delivering meaningful and effective community benefit through clinical services and other programming. Required Components A CHNA report has five required components: 1) Definition of community served 2) A prioritized description of the significant health needs of the community 3) Transparency in the process and methods used to conduct the CHNA, including how it took into account input from the community served and prioritized community health needs 4) A description of the resources potentially available to address the identified significant prioritized community health needs 5) An evaluation of the impact of actions taken to address the significant health needs identified in the previous CHNA report (June 2013). A CHNA report is considered complete when it is adopted by a governing body of the facility and made widely available to the public. Community Served NYC Health + Hospitals serve all New Yorkers in every neighborhood in New York City regardless of their ability to pay. Addressing disparity throughout New York City, NYC Health + Hospitals is the safety-net for the uninsured and underserved in New York City.

  • The Bowne House Historical Society, Inc
    The Bowne House Historical Society, Inc. AUTUMN 2011 BOWNE HOUSE AND ITS MISSION Bowne House, circa 1661, is the oldest house in Queens and one of the oldest in New York City. The house is an amalgam of Dutch and English traditions of building; continuity of ownership provides a unique view of changing cultural values and increased prosperity over time. Bowne House was occupied by nine generations of family, but events which took place in its early years secured its place in history. John Bowne is known for his courageous defense of religious liberty; his actions, and those of his fellow residents of Flushing, helped establish this principle in America. In 1662, Bowne defied a ban imposed by Governor Peter Stuyvesant on the practice of religions other than the Dutch Reformed Church by permitting Quakers to worship in his home. Bowne was arrested and deported to Holland, where he successfully pleaded his case before the Dutch West India Company. He returned home in 1664, and the principle of religious freedom was established in the colony. Bowne House is operated by the Bowne House Historical Society, whose mission includes the preservation of the house, its collections and its grounds for their historical and educational interest, for the significance of the house in the history of New York, and for its role in the establishment of the principle of freedom of conscience in America. Bowne House is owned by the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation and is a member of Historic House Trust of New York. THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES OF THE BOWNE HOUSE HISTORICAL SOCIETY Rosemary S.
